Any Python code can be used from a Python Script, as long as it has
been marked safe for importing into a restricted code. So, yes, you
can define your Python class in a Product, but you must mark it safe
for use in scripts. You can then import your code into the script and
use it there.

In lib/python/Products/PythonScripts/module_access_examples.py you'll
find a series of examples that explain how to mark code safe for use
in restricted code.
